Let's see your cargo baskets.

Just ordered this generic eBay rack:

It's 64" x 39" x 6" with the included extension, which is the size I was looking for.

There are some $20 off $100+ eBay Motors coupons going around. As a result, I was able to grab it for $99 shipped from US. Definitely an offer I could not refuse. Hopefully it's not a complete POS!

I will post up pics and initial thoughts as soon as I receive it and get it up on the roof.
 






Yes please post pics and info on it when you get it.
 






I have that same rack. The directions to put it together suck, but it's not too difficult to figure out how to put it together. I am pleased with it other than the finish on it it is thin and small rust spots appeared wherever the bars are joined, so I would recommend painting it really well after assembly and before installation. It is pretty versatile though if your wanting to mount lights and other things on it. I have 2 mounted on the rear upper tube, the other 2 in the first pic are mounted to the rails on the body. I also just installed 5 light across the front. I used 3/4" u-bolts and made my own mounts which worked really well. You can fine tune the up/down adjustment of the lights with u-bolts just by tightening the front or back nut on the u-bolts. I also have a small trailer cargo net from harbor freight that works really well with it.
